Some great quotes, teamwork and some great mos.

Someone posted that some time back, great video. I love the guys sitting on the billet of steel for ballast as it goes into the furnace.

The second vid i had not seen, more fantastic stuff, thanks.

Pays to remember where we come from and how we got here I think.

As much as we look back at such nostalgic endeavour it is something we won't see unless perhaps you happen to be in India or perhaps China.

What a great vid. What about that hydraulic (?) hammer! Very interesting watch.
